After saving a firmware preload table to a file, you can use it to update the adapter
firmware (see “Update Firmware Preload Table” on page 3-69).
Update MPI Config Table
10: Utilities n: Update MPI Config Table
Select the Update MPI Config Table option to write configuration data from a
previously saved .dat file to the Flash on the adapter through the message
passing interface (MPI), which enables you to update a new MPI config table to
the MPI firmware. When you select this option from the Utilities menu, SANsurfer
FC/CNA HBA CLI prompts you to select either an 8Gb adapter port (QLx81xx) or
All HBAs to update.
The CLI displays the current version of the MPI config table for the adapter; for
example:
MPI Config Table (CNA ):
Current Version: v1.0
The CLI then warns you of the danger inherent in updating the table and prompts
you twice to confirm the update procedure. If you respond Yes to both prompts
the update proceeds. For example:
Updating MPI config table of HBA instance 0 - QLE8142...
Successful, please reboot for the change to take effect.
Save MPI Config Table
10: Utilities n: Save MPI Config Table
Select the Save MPI Config Table option to export the data in the MPI config
table in the Flash to a file. When you select this option from the Utilities menu,
SANsurfer FC/CNA HBA CLI prompts you to select an 8Gb adapter port
(QLx81xx) for which to save an MPI configuration table, and to specify a .dat
filename in which to save the information.
For example:
MPI Config Table (CNA ):
